A non-review post!

Life has been just moving along at racing speed. First I had bronchitis, then Bug got sick-which ended up being croup-, then our 6yo started getting sick, and now our 13yo is showing symptoms of getting sick.

Can you say done with sickness?

I am. Truly and wholly done.

While all that was going on we had Sabbath Week, school, soccer, ballet, two drama practices, BSF, a van that wouldn't start, a leak under the house, a printer that won't work, two computer crashes, a job change for hubster, and I'm sure more than that.

Sounds like fun, doesn't it? Nah, I don't think so either.

But, I know whom I have believed and I trust Him to make things right and to take care of us until that time. He is faithful. He is wonderful and generous and kind and loving. He knows the trials we face and is waiting for us to ask Him for help.

So, we keep going on and pray daily for strength and peace. Life is good even with all the troubles.

The Starfish Story

While walking on the beach one day, I saw a Starfish by the shore. And everywhere I looked it seemed, I saw a thousand more. Then what to my surprise appeared? A boy of nine or ten. And as the Starfish washed ashore, he threw them back again. "One Starfish won't make a difference son; You can't change this situation." He stooped and picked up one more Starfish, then looking right at me, "I can make a difference for this one, sir" and returned it to the sea. So I went and gathered all my friends, my brothers and my cousins. We joined in with that little boy and saved Starfish by the dozens. There are still many to be rescued-many "Starfish" on life's shore. And you can make a difference too...by saving just one more. C.C. Milbrandt
